General Cultivation Q&A

Fat Leaves and Short Bush = INDICA Thin Leaves and Tall Bush = SATIVA Sativas are just about the opposite of Indicas. They are tall, thin plants, with much narrower leaves and grow a lighter green in color. They grow very quickly and can reach heights of 20 feet in a single season. They originally come from Colombia, Mexico, Thailand and Southeast Asia. Once flowering has begun, they can take anywhere from 10 to 16 weeks to fully mature. Flavors range from earthy to sweet and fruity. Sativa's higher THC than CBD equals cerebral, soaring type of high, more energetic which can stimulate brain activity and may produce hallucinations. Sativa plants are taller, take longe…

Hi Fellow stoners,can someone please tell me if a product by the name of "Damp Rid" is any good,I have a 18oz/510 g tub that i have recently purchased but have never tried.

How things going? I have been looking at a few websites that have the auto-pots on them and am thinking of buying three or four to start of with the one that I want to buy is called a Budgrower one pot system has anyone out there had any experience with the auto-pot range or with the Budgrower one pot system its self? Cheers Sorry the website: http://www.autopot.com.au if that does not work let me no

Hi Fellow growers for clones I have tried Grow Australia;s cloning chamber see:www.grow.com.au and it is effective,however i have updated to the following system from Nutriflo. Complete Propagation Kit #3 includes 1 Basic Propagation Kit and 1 extra Propagation Box, 60cm Heating Mat (with thermostat) and Twin 2’ Fluorescent propagation light on stand. http://users.bigpond.net.au/nutriflo/index.html

What is the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit? I have no idea, so could someone give me any easy to understand explanation Cheers

NEGATIVE ION GENERATORS Negative ions are oxygen molecules which have been loaded with an extra electron. They float in the air and when they encounter a positively charged molecule (which is missing an electron) the electron jumps, neutralizing both molecules. Positively charged particles include dust, bacteria, fungal spores and odor molecules. Eliminating these air- borne particles and causing them to precipitate is helpful to the growing environment. According to studies performed during the 1970s, both animals and plants performed better in a negative ion rich environment. Negative ion generators use a miniscu…

hows it goin, I have a few questions that I'd like an answer to please. (01) What does cfm stand for? (02) My grow room will be approx.. 1.5m Long by 2m High by 70cm Wide, what size fans would I need? (03) I plan on growing 6-8 plants is there enough space to fit 6-8 plants in the room? Cheers

my first grow is under a 400 watt hps and i have four babies one of them is doing fantastic but my question is im currently on 18/6 is these ok and when i want it to bud or veg im going to 12/12 does these sound already the strain is unknown and im using soil if these helps

I'm considering a scrog grow as my first. Just wondered if any here have done scrog grows and if you think they're worth it or not. my grow space will be about 400deepx600widex1800high, but I'm now thinking I'll double that and use a 400W HPS instead of a 250. From what I've read at Overgrow an experienced scrog grower can get around 2 ounce per square foot. Even if I got 1 to 1.5 I'd be more than happy.

Does anyone have a website that I can refer to so that I can do some research on the types of nutes that I will be using because I no bugger all about nutrients Screwed up this subject is under the wrong bloody heading is supposed to be in the general area I would delete it but I dont no how to once its been posted Plus I got the damn heading wrong it supposed to be Nutes

what would you think of this as a plan.... buy 6 clones off SPC, 2 Red Devil, 2 Verry Berry Sativa, 2 White Rhino. Definitely keep the 2 sativas as mothers, as I don't want to go grey waiting for the first crop. I veg the red devil and rhino, keep one of each as mothers and flower one of each. depending on yield/quality of bud I decide whether I want another devil/rhino crop, this time off 4 clones, or whether I'll be set for a awhile and give the sativa a go. If when growing from the first 6 clones I have trouble with any of them, I'll keep the most healthy ones as mothers and flower the ones that aren't doing so well, obviously with the object of keeping at least…
